Berat Castle, Berat, Albania From antiquity to the present, a living castle
This castle is the city of Berat's pride and joy. Its courtyard gives beautiful views of the city and the valley below, and you're sure to be welcomed warmly by the castle's inhabitants. 120 minutes
National Iconographic Museum Onufri, Berat, Albania His name is inscribed on the National Iconographic Museum in Berat, which is housed in the Dormition of St. Mary Cathedral. The Byzantine church is highlighted by an iconostasis carved on walnut wood, gold-plated, and surrounded by other exquisite works of medieval art. The museum's collection, which totals 173 chosen works, also comprises the majority of Onufri's oeuvre. The famous Onufri's post-Byzantine art works were thereafter continued by his students, including his own son, Nikolla. All of the icons in this museum were painted between the 16th and 20th century by Albanian iconographic painters. 20 minutes
Gorica Bridge, Berat, Albania Built in the centre of the city of Berat, the grandiose Bridge of Gorica is one of the most beautiful Ottoman bridges in the Balkan region, and connects the city with the neighborhood of the same name. This object owes much of its beauty to its very gradual arch, 10m tall, and elegantly extending 130m over across both sides of the Osumi riverbed. It is composed of a total of seven arches, wooden railings, and several small “windows,” which give the arches whimsical facial features, making this bridge a rare sight indeed. Once spotted, you’ll find it hard not to stop your car by the side of the road in order to admire its beauty close up.
Mangalem, Berat, Albania Berat, one of Albania's most ancient and oldest cities, will occupy your entire day with breathtaking scenery as well as its rich history and tradition. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is divided into three big neighborhoods: Mangalem and Gorica, separated by the Osum River, and the medieval castle, which is still inhabited. Remember that the city's famed windows will accompany you wherever you go!

Ani is such an amazing guide! He is a professional, knowledgeable, and very friendly guide. Berat was stunning; a lovely walk around the castle, stopping at numerous sites. We learnt a lot of things during our trip: we ate great food, drank great wines, strong raki, and learnt a lot about Albanian culture and tradition. Like how to drink raki with a family or group of friends. Best day tour option to book if you are coming to visit Albania!

I don’t often write a review but Mario really deserves one. His tour was nothing short of brilliant and I’m already recommending it to others. From when Mario picked us up (on time and in a clean car) he chatted sharing his knowledge of the country and some personal stories too. He answered pretty much all our questions and made us feel at ease. The tour itself to Berat was great (you can ready about the place elsewhere). Mario took us around the castle showing us the best view points, chatting about the history and introducing us to residents as we went. After lunch we visited the towns either side of the river. We requested lunch and Mario took us to a beautiful local restaurant with the most amazing views. Everything on the tour was about giving us the absolute best experience. After lunch we headed to Cobo vineyard for wine tasting. Another great experience where Mario could share more stories and his local knowledge while we drank wine. Then back to the hotel! Throughout it all Mario also took photos of us (both posed and ones we didn’t know were happening). He’s a brilliant photographer! It wasn’t cringy (I generally hate my photo being taken!) and now we have so many photographic memories of the day along. I can’t recommend Mario enough. I’ve heard great things about the other tours too and I only wish we’d known about Tok tours earlier.

This was one of the best tours I've ever had. Andi was the perfect guide, answering any questions that we had and telling us everything we wanted to know about Berat as well as Albania. Unfortunately, it was very hot, but he always made sure to talk with us in the shadows so we wouldn't burn. He was a smooth driver while giving tips and history about each area we passed by. It was an amazing tour, and I highly recommend it for anyone traveling to Albania.
